EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Fifth Avenue, New York, circa 1870. The image captures the essence of a vibrant society event, with men and women elegantly dressed in evening attire. Men don top hats and tailcoats while women adorn themselves with intricate gowns and elaborate hairstyles. Amidst this fashionable crowd, a couple strolls hand in hand, their child by their side. The scene is alive with energy as people fill the sidewalks, creating a sense of movement and activity. The city's urban landscape serves as an impressive backdrop to this social gathering; towering buildings line the avenue as horse-drawn carriages pass by. Published by the Religious Tract Society in 1876, this engraving offers us a glimpse into an era long gone but not forgotten. It transports us to a time when Fifth Avenue was already establishing itself as one of Manhattan Island's most prestigious addresses. As we admire this historical photograph print from Fine Art Finder, we are reminded of how society has evolved over the years yet still retains its fascination for grand events and gatherings that bring people together.
